In today’s fast-moving digital landscape, lead generation is no longer just about gathering contacts — it’s about what you do with those contacts. Businesses need smart systems to manage outreach, follow-ups, and scheduling — all while delivering a personalized touch. That’s where Trudy and True Pipeline come in.
Recently, we worked with The Loan Hotline, a mortgage and lending business struggling to stay ahead in an ultra-competitive space. What happened next wasn’t just a win — it was a transformation. By integrating Trudy’s AI automation with True Pipeline’s sales workflow expertise, we helped streamline their lead handling, cut down on missed opportunities, and boosted their bookings by more than 50%.
Here’s how we did it — and how you can apply the same formula to your business.
The Problem: A Funnel Full of Friction
Before connecting with Trudy and True Pipeline, The Loan Hotline faced a common issue many businesses experience: an overwhelming volume of leads with no clear system to manage them. Leads were coming in through multiple channels, but manual processes led to delays, missed follow-ups, and dropped handoffs. Agents were spending more time chasing paperwork and scheduling calls than actually closing deals.
Here’s what their process looked like:
Before:
- ❌ Inconsistent Lead Follow-Ups
- ❌ Manual Scheduling
- ❌ Low Engagement Rates
- ❌ High Lead Leakage
Sound familiar? If you’re nodding your head, you’re not alone. This is a bottleneck we see time and time again across industries.
The Solution: Trudy + True Pipeline
We stepped in with a two-pronged approach: use Trudy, our intelligent automation assistant, to handle the heavy lifting — and plug that into True Pipeline, a sales workflow engine designed to create structure and results.
What Is Trudy?
Trudy is an AI-powered virtual assistant that automates conversations, scheduling, and CRM updates. It ensures leads are never left waiting and keeps your funnel flowing 24/7.
What Is True Pipeline?
True Pipeline is a sales optimization framework that builds custom funnels tailored to your business needs. It ensures your process is optimized from first touch to final close — with automation where it matters most.
Streamlined Funnel Breakdown
Here’s how the transformation looked in funnel form:
- Customized CRM Setup
- We started by building a CRM tailored to The Loan Hotline’s workflow. This wasn’t a one-size-fits-all setup — we customized everything to mirror their team structure, lead types, and communication preferences.
- Automated Outreach
- Trudy jumped in immediately — reaching out to leads via text and email within seconds of inquiry. No lag, no missed follow-up.
- Dynamic Scheduling
- Leads could now book calls directly through Trudy’s smart calendar integration. This meant no more phone tag or back-and-forth emails to find a time.
- Lead Nurturing
- Trudy continued to engage leads who didn’t respond right away, sending reminders, FAQs, and personalized check-ins.
- Qualified Leads to Sales
- Only qualified, warmed-up leads were passed to the sales team — boosting productivity and closing rates.
This funnel eliminated confusion and put automation to work where it counts.
